I was also thinking of doing Feather Feb. Not sure yet, I am also toying with Four For February.I'm going for FEather FEbruary and will be documenting my journey with the AS-D2. If I fail to see that through, I'll be using only Feather blades in my other razors.
I could do a month of Wickham's 1912 ...
... but my favourite brush to use with the Wickham's 1912 is a massive piggy! Kinda defeats the object of the month. Hmmm, one to ponder.
I'm inIt's a few weeks to go, but for a theme for the month of February how would something like 'Veganuary' for a month to use your non tallow based shaving soaps? I tend to use tallow based shaving sticks more than most other soaps and I thought it could be a good time to give my non tallow based shaving soaps a bit of use.
I'm in the same boat. Featherless currently, but will pick up some to participate if that's the choice. Alternatively, I now have a big enough arsenal of razors and brushes (after being a member here for a monthOn that note, forget about the Vegan themed month for February! I think Tony's suggestion of 4 for February or Chris's Feather February are better ones! Well, I'm less sure about the latter as I don't own a Feather razor and truly despise Feather blades, but I'd be willing to give one a go for academic purposes.
I've got a FEATHER Popular and two packs of blades ...
If it's FEATHER February, it has to be Muhle March. I really don't think I could stick to one of anything for a month, but the "four for February" is do-able for me. Declare kit at the beginning and crack on, eh?
Well, I blew "no purchase 2021" by around 10:00 this morning ... so, it'll have to be one of the other ones. I did manage to get a sale in before making my first purchase though, so technically still up on the deal.
One thing I quite like to do is honour patent dates. Here's a few:
